ART FROM THE ROAD: Sunday Postcard Art Challenge (10-28-18)

I am pumped that Mandy Chilvers has again invited me to host the Sunday Postcard Art challenge. One of my favorite art topics is Edgar Allan Poe, so it is he who rules the challenge this week!

I began by resizing and printing an image from a digital stamp set called Poe Boy. Next, I stamped an image of Poe (from Carmen's Veranda) onto white cardstock and cut it out. Using my rotary trimmer, I cut the image in half and adhered it to my background. The text stamp,  from Invoke Arts, was printed on white cardstock and matted with black cardstock, then adhered to my postcard. A rather simple project but definitely an edgy tale of the macabre. 


Thank you for stopping by today and for taking a moment to leave a comment. Both are important to me and inspire me! I hope you will take some time this week to play along with my Edgar Allan Poe challenge on the Sunday Postcard Art site. You can find the details for participating here.

Cheers!
